Exclusive: China May Issue 6 Trillion Yuan in Treasury Bonds to Buttress Economy - Caixin Global
China may raise 6 trillion yuan from ultra-long special treasury bonds over three years as part of its efforts to buttress the slowing economy through fiscal stimulus, multiple sources with knowledge of the matter told Caixin.
The funds will be partly used to help local governments resolve their off-the-books debts, according to the sources.
Speculation about the size of China's new fiscal stimulus has been rife since the Ministry of Finance pledged at a press briefing Saturday to help local governments relieve debt pressure without specifying the amount.
